If your model have not water softener, you may skip this section.

There are two ways to reduce the hardness: one way is using water softener, the other is using

water

detergent.

The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will form on the dishes
and utensils.
The appliances is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate lime and minerals from the
water.

Always use salt intended for use with dishwashers.
The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows:

Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt

1

container.

2

If you are filling the container for the first time ,fill 2/3 of its volume with w ater.

3

Place the end of the funnel(supplied) into the hole and introduce about 2kg of
salt .It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container

4

Carefully screw the cap back on.

1

.

The salt container must be refilled when the salt warning light comes on. Though the salt container is filled

enough, the indicator light may not black out before the salt fully dissolve.

.

2 If there are spills of the salt, a soak program could be run to wipe them out.

The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness of the water used.
This is intended to optimize and customize the level of salt consumption so that the salt consumption could be set proceed as

follows:

Unscrew the cap from the salt container.

1

There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see Figure to the side), if

2

necessary, rotate the ring in the anticlockwise direction from the "-" Setting
toward the "+" sign, based on the hardness of the water being used.It is
recommended that adjustments should be made in accordance with the following
schema:

YOU MAY NOT ADD TOO MUCH DETERGENT TO PREVENT THE FORMATION OF DEPOSITS BECAUSE YOUR DISHWASHERS
HAVE SPECIALLY-DESIGNED WATER SOFTENERS.
The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle followingtheinstructionsprovidedinthe"WashCycle

Table".Your dishwashers use less detergent and rinse aid than conventional dishwashers. Generally, only one tablespoon of
detergent is needed for a normal wash load. Also, more heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just
before starting dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.

IF THE WATER ISN'T TOO HARD, YOU MAY ALSO PREVENT THE FORMATION OF DEPOSITS B Y ADDING DETERGENT.
The amount of detergent needed can vary due to differences in water hardness. To determine the water hardness in your area,
contact your local water utility or area water softening company. The harder the water, the more detergent you may need.
Remember, you should adjust the amount of detergent you use by small amounts until you find the correct amount.

To remove hard water spots, try the following:

Run dishes through a normal wash program.
Remove all metal dishware, such as cutlery, pans, etc.,
fr om thedishwasher.
Do not add detergent.
Pour two cups of vinegar into a bowl and set the bowl face

up onthe low err ac kof thedishwasher.

Run the dishes through a normal wash program.
If this doesn't work, try the same process with 1 / 4 cup of
citric acid crystals instead of vinegar.

Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keep it out
of reach of children.

To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left)
arrow and lift it out.
Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to
overfill.
Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow
and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.

Ameasuredamountofrinseaidisreleasedduringthefinalrinse.Aswithdetergent, the amount
of rinse aid needed for your dishes depends on the hardness of the water in your area. Too much
rinse aid can result in lather of foaming and cause cloudiness or steaks on your dishes. If the
water in your area is very soft, you may not need rinse aid. If you do,you can dilute the rinse aid
with an equal amount of water.
The rinse aid dispenser has six settings. Always start with the dispenser set on " 1 ". If spots and
poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser
lid and rotating the dial to "2". If the dishes still are not drying properly or are spotted, adjust the
dial to the next higher number until your dishes are spot-free. We suggest you to set on "4" .
If only four settings we suggest you to set on "2".

In accorance with En50242 standard, the dispenser should be set on the maximum lever when doing
the performance.

Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers.
Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don't put powder detergent
into the dispenser until You're ready to wash dishes.

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water
from forming droplets on your dishes that can leave spots and
streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to "sheet" off
the dishes.

Your dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse aids. The
rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the
detergent dispenser. To fill the dispenser, open the cap and
pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator
turns completely black. The dispenser holds about 100 ml of
liquid rinse aid.

Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this could
cause oversudsing. Wipe away any spills with a damp cloth.
Don't forget to replace the cap before you close the dishwasher
door.
If you have soft water, you may not need rinse aid for it may
cause a white film to develop on your dishes.

5

If there is no rinse aid warning light in the control panel, you can judge the amount of rinse aid by the following means. The
black dot on the rinse aid dispenser indicates the amount of rinse aid in the dispense r. As the rinse aid dimin ishes, the size of
the black dot decreases. You should never let the rinse aid get below 1 / 4 full.

As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse
aid level indicator changes, as illustrated below.

The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such asglasses,coffeeandteacupandsaucers,aswell
as plates, small bowls and shallow pans(as long as they are not too dirty).
Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved by the spray o f water.
The upper rack can be adjusted for height by putting wheels of different height into the rails.

We recommend that you place large items which are most difficult to clean into the lower rack: pots, pans, lids,
serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure to the right.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the
top spray arm.

Pots, serving bowls, etc, must always be placed top down.
